“Rita and Brian are fantastic! They took wonderful care of Beign, taking him to different parks daily for his exercise. I received a detailed daily report with numerous pictures letting me known how Beign was doing and what he did each day. Rita and Brian took wonderful care of my fur baby. It was comforting to know he was in great hands. I would highly recommend them. Thank you, Rita and Brian!!”
“Kelsey was amazing! I could tell Milo was safe and happy through all of the wonderful pictures she sent to me daily. He had so much fun I was worried he wouldn't want to come home! It was truly a fun vacation for him too. Also, when I dropped him off he was still having a few accidents in the house every now and then, and since he's been home, not one! Highly recommend, thank you so much!!”
“This was our first time leaving our puppy and Loni was amazing! She sent frequent messages and pictures to let us know she was adjusting well. We will definitely use Loni again!!”
“Emily was wonderful. My doodle has some anxiety about new places. From the pictures Emily sent she looked completely relaxed and comfortable! I appreciate the communication throughout the time we were gone.”
“Rachelle was a wonderful dog sitter while she kept our dog for 10 days. Our dog came home healthy, happy and tired from wonderful play time. Rachelle is very responsive and sent pictures of our dog to keep us updated. We will definitely use her services again. I do highly recommend her.”
“Fantastic care provided for our shitzu with updates and pictures. We were confident our little guy was in great hands and wouldn’t hesitate to book again.”
“Kirsten and Nicolas were great! They sent pics during the whole stay and were very communicative. They also have a fenced in back yard that they let the dogs run around in. They updated us when the pups appetites were low, which I really appreciated. Both of our dogs tend to be anxious without us because they aren’t used to used to being alone, so it was also a big plus that they work from home. In the past we have had to send our pups to kennels because we don’t have friends or family near by who can watch them. They would be locked in a kennel all day and we would literally have to pay extra for belly rubs or time out of the kennel. I usually feel uneasy the whole trip but not this time. I could tell they were well taken care of and treated like one of their own. Thank you so much Kirsten and Nicolas!”
“Nicole was so amazing with our dog, Nellie! This was our first Rover experience, so of course I was nervous, and Nicole sent frequent photos and updates of Nellie. 10/10 would recommend and will definitely be rebooking!”
“What a wonderful experience! Thank you so much from all three of us. It’s such a relief to know that our girl was taken so great care of. It means so much”
“Angela did a wonderful job taking care of Willow. She sent pictures and updates which was much appreciated. Will book with her again! Willow loved their morning jogs together as well.”
“She and her daughter took great care of our pup. He loved them and seems to have had a great time on vacation from his parents. They took him on lots of walks, played with his favorite toys and gave him lots of love. Thank you so much for being a wonderful sitter to Prince.”
“Lauren is absolutely wonderful! Her kind and caring nature shows through in the way she cares for our pups. Lauren is very detailed oriented, giving a report on how our pups got along with her dog and each other, what they ate, if they rested. We feel very blessed to have Lauren to help us care for our fur family.”
“Angela was wonderful with our dog. He absolutely enjoyed his time with her family with unlimited love and affection! Her fenced backyard was his happy place for playtime, sniffing and bird watching. Overall a perfect stay and he will definitely be back for another vacation!”
“Emily and Nicholas took great care of our Zsigmondy, Cooper. He was on medication, which they gave to him and also let us know how he was doing. We got lots of pictures which were really cute. We will definitely book with them again. Cooper was much happier at their house than at a local dog daycare/boarding facility.”
“John, Shannon and their family took such good care of my pup while I was in vacation. They sent pictures and videos all throughout which was so nice. Crew was in such good hands. I could just tell how much fun he had while he was there. This family made it so much easier on me to leave my dog for a week and im so thankful to them and the love they showed my baby Crew.”
“I booked Lauren for the second time, and once again she was amazing! She takes such great care of my Xena and really caters to her needs, especially when it comes to food and routines. I love that she sends plenty of updates throughout the visit, it gives me so much peace of mind. She’s professional, attentive, and genuinely cares. I absolutely love her and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter!”
“Abigail took great care of our dog while we were on vacation! She was very responsive and sent frequent updates throughout with videos and photos. Would highly recommend!”
“My dog Bella has been cared for by Andrew twice now, and both times she’s been absolutely happy and well taken care of. The second time we went my dog got excited as we pulled up to the house, remembering what a good time she had during her last visit. Highly recommended!”

Delaware dog parents share their Rover experiences
This is our second time boarding with Rita & Brian. It is clear to me that they truly love dogs! They provide lots of enrichment activities, endless photos, and a written summary each day. They took the dogs on walks both in the AM & the PM, going to different community parks, the dog park, and on walking trails. Our dog usually tries to pull away when we arrive at a dog sitter's home, but this time we could see that she was happy to be there, confidently walking to their door. We will definitely reach out to Rita & Brian when we need dog boarding again!
Alexandria is wonderful! She took incredible care of Lucky, providing frequent updates and photos that kept my mind at ease. It was clear from the start that Lucky was in great hands and felt right at home throughout the entire stay. I highly recommend Alexandria for anyone needing a reliable and attentive sitter!
We so appreciate the care that Kirsten and Nicolas provided for our dog. They are kind, caring, and flexible. Our travel plans changed about a week before our scheduled travel and they were very willing to add 2 more days to our dog’s stay. We came home to a happy, healthy dog!
We were really nervous about leaving Ollio with someone we didn’t know before, but already at our first meeting with Kristin,her wonderful family,and their warm home,we knew that Ollio would be in great hands with them. This was confirmed every day by the photos and videos that Kristin thoughtfully sent us. She answered every question we had quickly, with a lot of patience and care. Kristin and Nate,along with their kids,are true dog lovers! Thank you so much! I will definitely hire Kristin again!
Ishlamar was very accommodating and listened to all of our needs for our pup, Sadie. She also was very communicative and sent regular updates with photos throughout the entire weekend. Sadie seemed very happy and healthy when we picked her up. We would absolutely book with Ishlamar again in the future!
